Time 2h5m

Yield 9 donuts

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
½ teaspoon ground cloves
½ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground anise
2 ½ cups all purpose flour, sifted, plus more for dusting
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ cup pumpkin puree
½ cup sour cream
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
½ cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
2 large egg yolks
4 qt neutral oil, for frying
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons whole milk

Steps:

  • Make the chai spice mix: In a small bowl, stir together the cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, nutmeg, and anise seeds until well combined.
  • Make the donuts: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and 1 tablespoon of the chai spice mix.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the pumpkin purée and sour cream.
  • In a large glass bowl, combine the butter, ginger, and sugar. Beat with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute.
  • With the mixer running, add the egg and egg yolks, 1 at a time, and mix until fully incorporated.
  • Add ⅓ of the flour mixture and continue mixing until just combined. Then, add half of the pumpkin mixture and mix until just combined. Continue alternating additions, finishing with the flour mixture and mixing until the dough just comes together.
  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and dust the top with more flour. Use a rolling pin to roll out to ¼ inch thick. Use a 3½-inch round cutter to cut out 9 rounds. Then, use a 1-inch round cutter to cut out the centers of each round (gather and re-roll the scraps once if needed to get 9 donuts). Place the donuts on the prepared baking sheet and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C).
  • Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot, fry the donuts in the hot oil until golden brown and crisped, flipping once, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a wire rack set over paper towels to drain.
  • Make the chai glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, remaining ½ teaspoon of the chai spice mix, and the milk until smooth.
  • Dip the top of each donut in the glaze to coat, then return to the rack to let any excess glaze drip off.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Pumpkin Purée: For the best results, use fresh pumpkin puree. You can make your own by roasting a pumpkin and scooping out the flesh, or you can buy canned pumpkin puree.
  • Pumpkin Pie Spice: If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can make your own by combining 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves.
  • Glaze: The glaze for these donuts is made with powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract. You can adjust the consistency of the glaze by adding more or less milk.
  • Frying the Donuts: When frying the donuts, be sure to use a deep fryer or a large saucepan with at least 3 inches of oil. The oil should be heated to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Cooling the Donuts: After frying, allow the donuts to cool on a wire rack before glazing them. This will help to prevent the glaze from melting.

Conclusion:

These glazed pumpkin donuts are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for fall. They are light and fluffy, with a moist pumpkin flavor and a sweet glaze. These donuts are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
